 OUR LATEST POLL

Now the Senate is putting pressure on the White House to support a six-month extension of SAFETEA-LU. What are the prospects of such a measure passing before the current extension expires on Dec. 18?

Slim and none.
I think the chances are good.
I see them passing one or two more 30-day extensions before committing to a longer one.
